Welcome to the R&S
EDS300
The R&S
EDS300 is an analyzer designed for installing, testing and servicing
pulsed terrestrial navigation systems like DME and TACAN ground equipment. Its
wide dynamic range and compact design make the R&S
EDS300 ideal especially
for wired and field measurements on DME and TACAN ground stations.
The R&S
EDS300 provides high-precision stimulus and analysis functions for
DME / TACAN signals in the frequency range from 960
MHz to 1215
MHz. It per-
forms TX/RX measurements required for DME and TACAN ground stations in line
with the relevant civil and military standards accurately and efficiently.
The R&S
EDS300 can precisely determine characteristic parameters such as
peak power, main delay, reply efficiency, and can decode the identifier of the
ground station to be tested. The instrument also measures the parameters of
TACAN stations (R&S
EDS-K1 option) and performs in-depth pulse analysis
(R&S
EDS-K2 option).
The modular design of the R&S
EDS300 provides a high degree of flexibility to
adapt it to the task at hand. An interrogator (R&S
EDS-B2 option) with adjustable
output power (-80
dBm to +30
dBm peak power) is available for RX measure-
ments. An internal battery and a test antenna (R&S
EDST-Z1 option) deliver max-
imum flexibility when carrying out field measurements. Measured data can be
exported to a control system via remote control (LAN), or stored on a USB flash
drive.
